The magical shield around the fairies' kingdom is weakening. When siblings Wynn and Elric (The Silver Gate) venture beyond the protective boundary and into the Nightfell Wood, their bravery and openness to friendship help to resolve an impending crisis. An abundance of visual description and drama--conveyed in relatively simple language and sentence structure--makes Bailey's tale both satisfying and eminently accessible to young readers.
